Default any other El Paso, TX riders??

hey all - just curious how many other riders from El Paso use HDforums.

Also, I'm always up for meeting new folks to ride with from time to time. I'm not much into the MC scene, but I do love to ride whenever time allows, which is fairly often.

How many people ride in El Paso? How many people live in El Paso? Went through there as a kid and I don't remember it.

Welcome! Isn't the largest Harley dealer in the world located in El Paso?

there's about 700,000 in el paso (and that's just the citizens)

year-round riding lots of riders. Barnett hd is a big place.

I'm not new to the forums actually, just wondering if other riders around here use the forum.... (or know how to read for that matter!)

I actually called Barnett's about a bike. They were 2,000 dollars higher then my local dealer for the same bike. Bigger city then what I thought.

LOL, yeah, Barnett is cool, but its their prices that are pretty big. They do a lot of business and El Paso is pretty remote, so they're the only show in town for a long ways around.

El Paso has grown 3-fold in the past 25 years.

Too many people for my blood. Retirement will see me living elsewhere.

I stopped by Barnett on my way to San Antonio coming from California. It's a lot bigger than I thought! I sure miss Texas!
